- So let's begin.
Alright, so,
myth number one
is that you think that
you need to have all of these requirements,
these job requirements
to be able to do your job.
The myth here is that
you need
to fulfill
I think that's, yeah, fulfill
the job requirements
100%.
The fact of the matter is that you don't. Okay?
As long as you have the main requirements down,
then you should apply for that job. Okay?
When companies ask, you know a lot of times
companies on the job descriptions they ask for perfection
and it's just not even possible.
In fact, I think it's funny
when I look at a job description and it says
to
be
to be able to multitask,
and if you've ready anything in science
in the last 60 years,
or 70 years,
it's impossible to multitask.
So I don't know why this still applies
on job descriptions but it does.
Multitasking is impossible.
In fact, I have a story that I actually got an interview,
I got to interview with a job,
a company where I didn't even have
the requirements met.
So you can definitely apply for a job
where you don't meet the 100% requirements
as long as you have the main ones down
you should be fine.
The second one here is
only follow your passions.
Now this one is definitely a common job myth.
Yes.
This one is definitely a common job myth, because
for one we don't always know what our passions are.
And for two, what we think are our passions
are just fantasies.
For example,
if you think that, you know, you wanna become a lawyer
or a trial lawyer, a defense attorney,
you may think that you're gonna end up in court all the time
and arguing with the judge and the jury,
or you want to get one the juries side
and you're arguing with everybody in the audience
and your like woo!
This is great, I love it!
Yeah!
Okay, but the fact of the matter is,
when you're a defense attorney,
maybe only like 10-20% of the time you're in court.
80% of the time you are reading legal briefs
and editing things and thinking about things
and writing things and revising what you wrote down
and constructing your case.
A very small percentage of it is in court,
so if you think you wanna be a lawyer
because you want to have that kind action in court
just realize that its a very small percentage of
that actually happening.
So it's a big reason why a lot of people
after they become lawyers are like,
I hate my job.
A tremendous amount of lawyers hate their job.
Not kidding.
If you're a lawyer that loves their job,
nice, welcome to the two percent.
The third tip here is
leadership, not third tip,
third myth,
leadership
and management skills
will develop with time
and experience.
Okay, so the myth here is that
you think that if you want to grow
in management with your company
and you want to get more leadership roles
you just think that you have to wait
and then you'll get the leadership role
and then you'll be able to fulfill that
and you'll be able to lead teams
just because you got the position.
Here's the thing, is,
and this is the reason why so many managers suck,
is that they don't know how to lead.
They get their position, but they don't know how to
manage the team.
And so for some reason they get a promotion
so they have an even bigger team to manage
and they still don't know how to manage.
If you wanna get good at leadership and management skills
like anything, like sale skills,
like people skills,
like
working out, being able to get a six-pack,
being good at swimming, anything,
you have to actually work at it
and you have to read leadership books
and management books
and you have to actually ingest this information
and apply it to your team
apply it to your life.
And it's, you know, you'll try one thing
that doesn't work, you'll try another thing
that does work great.
But it does take studying,
It does take effort.
This leadership management, this stuff does not,
it's not acquirable with time.
It's, one is experience, but it's also
experience with studying. Okay?
The fourth myth about job,
about job myths that we're gonna go over today
is that
you can't
quit a job
within two years.
And this used to be the case is, uh,
I think,
probably pre mid 90s,
this use to be the case
where if you had a job, actually pre early 2000s,
if you had a job then you should stick with it for two years
because if your just job hopping from company to company
hiring managers are more reluctant to see
or are more reluctant to hire you
because they see that you might just, you know
high turnover, you might just leave
in another six months or something like that.
Now today it's not the case
because there's so much turnover
and the job market today isn't nearly
what it used to be.
There's a lot of people who are employees
but also independent contractors for other companies.
There's also a lot of people who maybe work 30 hours
at their job but they're hired by individuals.
Uh, maybe they have an online thing going on,
there's a lot of different ways
to generate income than there was.
And so there's a lot of people job hopping
from company to company.
Company loyalty isn't really
a big thing now-a-days so much as
I'm gonna have to research that.
But anyways, you can quit a job within two years.
If you know, your boss sucks, co-workers are negative
then yeah, go ahead and quit that job
if its only been 6 months.
Last tip here, last myth
that we're gonna work on here
is that
working long hours
will get you promoted.
And that is just simply not the case.
At least anymore.
If you spend long hours at the office
you're gonna, just like, yeah,
I'm sitting here, I'm working 70 hours a week
just so I can get that promotion.
It's not gonna work.
The only things that are gonna get you promoted
in this day and age
are your three P's, your three P's.
Your production.
Can you produce?
Whatever industry you're in.
Sales? Can you meet and excel quotas?
If you're in other industries, can you
if you're in design are you able to produce
and have a great design and have multiple
high quantity high quality kind of designs?
Number two,
people skills.
You need to have people skills
in order to get promoted
because you need to be able to speak to
your higher ups and actually have them like you.
Your third one here,
is presence.
You have to be present.
Not saying you have to be present for
106 hours a week,
but you do need to be present at your job.
Meaning that it's probably better to come
into the office, you know, a couple days a week
then, you know, not at all.
So, those are some common myths that
are probably killing you right now
and, that's about it.
